Description

** Watermark does not appear on products***
Colorful,dreamy looking and soulful,this Rainbow Horse Spirit or "painted pony" sports feathers in it's flowing mane - a wild and free spirit of the plains, a watercolor and pen and ink painting from the heart. Horse medicine is that of Power - both physical and spiritual! With Horse, shamans could fly through the air to reach heaven. The statement "Stealing horses is stealing power" was often heard in Native American cultures, and referred to the important role of Horse in native cultures. In one story a medicine man,Dreamwalker, walking across the plains to visit the Arapahoes sees a herd of wild mustangs in the distance. One at a time four different colored stallions approach him with messages of how to use Horse power.Black stallion brought the message of the great Void - riding into the Darkness to find Light.Yellow stallion took Dreamwalker to the East and Illumination - here he learned to teach and share with illumination. Next came Red Stallion who playfully explained the joys of balance between work and medicine and the joys of play.Teach with humor and you'll reach more people. And at last, White Stallion appeared in front of the herd - he was the messenger for all the other horses - and Wisdom and how to properly use power were his teaching! The gift of Power must always be used justly and wisely,with humility ,honor,caring and sharing in order to live in balance. White Stallion taught of the balanced medicine shield.
Horse became important to mankind in carrying him and his burdens far afield. Mankind refers to the power of an engine as "horsepower" - a reminder of the days when horses were highly prized as mankind's partners.

This stylized, abstract impressionism painting of a spirited,wild horse, feathered mane blowing in the wind will delight horse lovers and hold a special place in your home or office decor. A beautiful piece to have in a meditation room, full of healing energy!
